Bruno Mars rocks the White House

Bruno Mars rocks the White House

What better way to spend July 4th than with the President of the United States. Well that’s exactly what Bruno Mars and the Hooligans did this year as they put on a special show at the White House for the US Military Families.

Personally invited by the first family, Bruno delivered a first class show on the White House South Lawn as the president gave thanks to the service men and women who protect American’s freedom everyday.

As Bruno took to the stage in a performance that took everybody down memory lane he said, “Thank you so much, you guys, for celebrating with us today. But it wasn’t too long ago that we were playing bars and pubs in L.A., trying to make a buck. So now that we’re on the lawn, we just feel like doing something, do you mind if we just do what we used to do like six years ago?”

Before starting he added, “We’re just going to jam out. This is what we’re going to do.”

Then he and the Hooligans started with Led Zepplin’s “Whole Lotta Love,” The Outfield’s “Your Love,” Bell Biv Devoe’s “Poison,” Montell Jordan’s “This is How We Do It,” Bobby Brown’s “Every Little Step,” and Michael Jackson‘s “Rock With You.”

After finishing the medley, the group played an extended version of his song, “Runaway Baby,” from his 2010 album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans.

After finishing, Bruno then introduced the Obama’s who welcomed the guests and the president’s gave his speech.
